You are helping them, as you are doing exactly what they hope to accomplish: Spreading hate, and creating / escalating a conflict of cultures.

There already is a conflict of cultures, though. Islamic cultures stand in direct conflict with Western beliefs in free speech, democracy, the scientific method, the Protestant ethic, secular government, and so much more.. even among most so-called "moderate Muslims". It's naive to think somebody with a radically different culture is JUST LIKE YOU except they believe in a different God or wear their hair differently, that's not how it works. Culture generates profound differences in behavior, cognition, beliefs, everything... to the extent that the way your prefrontal cortex is wired depends on the nature of the culture and experiences you were exposed to during childhood and adolescence.

Some immigrants are willing to assimilate, and I applaud and welcome them, because that's what you are supposed to do when you immigrate. My undergrad anatomy/physio professor came from Turkey and she was absolutely wonderful. My gripe is that when you have no selectivity and high volume immigration, you get large groups of people who stick together and make little to no effort to integrate, creating a pocket of the old country in the new country (like Molenbeek, which has proven to be a disaster). This is harmful. Do you know what else plays into ISIS's hands and accomplishes their goals? Undermining the fabric of our society and creating huge theocratic parallel communities they can interface with and radicalize on the inside.

Also, hate has nothing to do with it. When you put out mouse traps to kill mice, is it because you hate mice? Not necessarily, it's because they get into stuff, chew, and leave poop and disease everywhere. Mice are actually kinda cute.

Yea looks like you missed the part where I said everyone is welcome but in reasonable numbers. But then it's much easier to just spin things and call me a bigot isn't it?

Here look I can do it too

Lets all combat terrorism by being nice to them and using some lame #hashtag.

nah, lets support trump who is going to abolish the millions of Muslims that inhabit your country

i mean they stable now, but lets just support trump claims about deportation

imagine a black presidential candidate suggesting all white people get shipped back to the UK / Spain

that would pass well i am sure

So what is the excuse of the immigrants that are committing rapes, and other violent crimes? Is it that they see the hate in the world and react to it? Not all of the immigrants that we are seeing are due to war or violence.

I in no way condone violence nor hate but that doesn't change the fact that there are already people out there that would prefer to see my throat slit as opposed to open meaningful dialog. They are also very adept at hiding in plain sight. Again something that is almost impossible for me with the way I stand out. I learned at an early age how to live with as little violence or hate as possible. But that doesn't change that there are people out there that just cannot do that. They want me(us) dead for any number of reasons and would kill me(us) if they could.


I think the analogy of comparing people to rats or mice is really inappropriate because when a rodent or animal is doing those things there is no malice involved. Where as when a person does a lot of the things you are trying to compare them to it is always involving emotions. You cannot commit violence without emotion of some sort unless you are a very mentally ill individual.
